  Pros

  The very first version of this screensaver did have a trojan but the now is completely clean. <p> <p>Old version added csrsc.exe to startup and was easly seen. <p>Old version is also easly seen by all av programs so download and use without worry.

  Cons

  Younger people may not know what movie this is based on...lol

• Spyware alert

  Summary

  Storm and I and a few other folks discovered this, just wanted to add a few notes. #gibson key is "gibson". The filename MAY be randomly assigned, haven't confirmed. The file appears to only contact efnet.demon.co.uk. Examination of the exe seems certain that the file is a DDos utility of some type, but I really don't know enough about examining files in hex editors to say much more. Sweet screen saver, wish it didn't have the little present embedded...

• Spyware or Trojan

  Summary

  This screensaver creates a file called csrsc.exe and connects to a bot controlled IRC channel #gibson on efnet. The purpose of this has not been determined but is being looked into. At current time the file is not detected by AV software nor Spyware removal apps. The file was found by a user after noticing irregular hits in performance. I urge CNET to remove this screensaver until further info on the purpose of csrsc can be determined
